The Olympic Athletes' Village in Whistler was unveiled to the media on August 20th. The 40-hectare site, located six kilometers south of Whistler Village, is expected to house 2,850 Olympic and 1,000 Paralympic athletes, officials and coaches. With terraced streets separating the condos and apartments, the accommodations will have a homey, village feel. Each room has Internet connectivity, comfortable beds, and two washrooms. The site is anchored by the Whistler Athletes Center, a 5,500-square-foot high-performance fitness centre.
After the Games, the village becomes Cheakamus Crossing, with nearly 97 percent of the 220 apartments townhouses and condos already sold as affordable housing to area employees.
